First try at a list, going for fast and Hard hitting! Please tell me EVERY bit of critisism that you can as I'm trying to make a 2500 point list to start off my purchases with!

Barak-urbaz (seek new prospects, always take what you are owed, where there is war there is gold, there is no trading with some people)

Aether-khemist (doughty champion)
Erdinmaster

X10 company w/ master, x3 light skyhook
X10 company w/ master, x3 light skyhook
X10 company w/ master, x3 skypike
X10 company w/ master, x3 aethermatic volley gun

Frigate w/ heavy skycannon
Frigate w/ heavy skycannon
Frigate w/ heavy skyhook, breath of morgrim
Ironclad w/ aethermatic volley cannon, self healing hull

X5 thunderers w/ mortars
X5 thunderers w/ mortars
X5 thunderers w/ mortars
X10 thunderers w/ fumigators

Ok, so the fumigators, volley gun squad, and erdinmaster all go in the ironclad. The mortar teams and the khemist sit back and pound shells into units. The other three companies go into frigates. The skypike team will take the forefront and attempt to stay off the most difficult target while the other two go for objectives and such.

Well you'll want that 3 units of mortars to just be one big unit so that you get more mileage out of the khemist buff.

I don't think the volleyguns are really going to math out very well. Pretty sure the light sky hooks are straight up better.

You might have just used volleyguns because that's what your going to have model wise which, /shrug.

You're right, we could change to 3 more Sky hooks and I can figure a way to convert them. Changing the 3 5 man squads to one 15 man is no big deal either. Any thoughts on how this list will fair utilizing the tactics I've theoried on them?

Nope!! =)

No idea really. I've been theoryhammerin my tail off but that's all I've got to offer, getting a 1k game in on Thursday.

All I can say is, a unit of 10 Thunderers with Aethercannons and a supporting Aether-Khemist to give them 2 shots each seems quite insane.
